First MRI Set Results Came Back [View all]

They found no new MS activity on any part of the brain. There were no lesions or plaques that weren't there 25-30 years ago.
I just had the cervical & thoracic spine scans yesterday, so no news on that.
But, at least the first 2 scans cam back clean.
BTW: the other MRI unit was not twice as fast as advertised. I was in that tube yesterday for 1 hr. 55 minutes.
